It seems that it is my very first post in the New Year 2013, so I wish You all the best and great time writing all kinds of programs. I’m sure it is going to be a great year for Delphi and Marco is predicting it as well, especially that next month Delphi is going [...]
The CodeRage7 online Delphi developer conference is in full swing! There is plenty of great content and I’m looking forward to replies of some sessions as it is impossible to follow all of them!
To me the biggest news is to have Marco Cantù appointed as the new Delphi Product Manager! Welcome to The Team!
In a moment my [...]
FireMonkey is busy;-)
I’m just back from Belgium where I was presenting FireMonkey, Delphi and RAD Studio XE2 in Lier at the event organized by Embarcadero-Benelux and PeopleWare. PeopleWare work closely with Embarcadero providing Delphi expertise to customers in Belgium.
There are a lot discussions among developers which technologies to choose and to me it is becoming [...]
Yesterday I was playing with implementing "parallax" starfield simulation in a Delphi XE2 iOS HD project as documented here. To be honest at the beginning my plan was to implement a classic "deep space" starfield simulation, but could not find any code samples, so decided to go for a simpler "parallax" approach.
I have posted my [...]
There is nothing like writing demo projects. Whenever I see an interesting piece of code, does not really matter in which language, I’m thinking about moving it to Delphi. Delphi XE2 is all about cross-platform and mobile development, so "moving to Delphi" specifically means for me these days "moving to Delphi iOS mobile app".
Every framework [...]
Today I have been presenting "FireMonkey 3D Programming" session on the SDE event in Zeist in the Netherlands. Bob Swart was so kind and invited me to present on the first session of the day in the "Delphi" conference track and I wanted to prepare a brand new demo to show off the power of [...]
I have just put together a little EDN article about using jQueryMobile JavaScript library in your Delphi XE2 "DataSnap REST Application" projects. The idea was to demonstrate how to call server-side functions implemented in native Delphi code from the JavaScript client embedded in a web page using very popular jQueryMobile framework for pages optimized for [...]
"FireMonkey in Action LIVE" is hitting the road again! I’m in Lisbon now and it was a very exciting day. I have demonstrated RAD Studio XE2, Delphi and FireMonkey to a fully packed room of developers in Lisbon. The energy levels were very high and it was a pure pleasure to demonstrate some cool new [...]
It is a really long day today:-) I’m now still listening to "24 Hours of Delphi" online webinar hosted by David I and Anders Ohlsson from Developer Relations, and it is almost midnight now. Very good stuff!
I have promised during my session to upload "FireMonkey End-to-End Scenarios" demos. Both demos and slides are now available [...]
I was always intrigued by a possibility of doing callbacks in client/server, distributed applications. RAD Studio XE demos include "CallbackChannels" demo that shows how to use callbacks with different DataSnap communication protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP) and architectures (DBX, REST).
In this "Delphi Labs" episode I have tried to create the most simple example of using callbacks. Both client and server are [...]
